However, with the club under new management, the goalkeeper has refused to throw in the towel just yet, having seen some welcoming signs that he may have a brighter future at White Hart Lane under Andre Villas-Boas.

"I’m sure that Villas-Boas’ arrival is going to help me," he added. "He is great and he wants to do the best for Tottenham.

"I’m sure he will achieve many things here. I hope I could play in his team until 2014."
